Gr 4-8—While there are no shortage of titles on animals, this excellent series continues to distinguish itself from the herd. Stunning photographs, sidebars with intriguing facts, and engaging prose are hallmarks of this set, and the chapters describing each creature's role in folklore or pop culture add to the fun (The Little Mermaid's Sebastian and The Lion King's Timon make appearances in, respectively, Crabs and Meerkats).
